Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

"The ~~Nazis~~ Russians entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everybody else and nobody was going to bomb them."
entered? you spelt "started" wrong
It’s a quote from a British officer during ww2 about the Nazis. OP just changed nazi to Russian.
Besides being a quote as the other chap pointed out, to enter something in this manner doesn't suggest they didn't also start it, it's quite acceptable grammatically.
Pip pip tally ho! *rides away into the sunset on Churchill's back"
"They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind."
you spelled "ruZZians" wrong
I don't really think ordinary moscow residents are responsible for this war
There are some residents of Moscow that are definitely responsible for this war.
There are no residents of Ukraine that are responsible for this war.
They may be not guilty, but they are responsible. This is how wars work I believe.
I completely agree with you and find it sad you got downvoted.
These people live in a harsh dictatorship with nopress freedom. In such a state, they don't have a say in what happens in many areas of their lives, let alone in the course of a war.
I don't know if the ukrainian drones are targetting civilians, but if they are nothing makes it ok. We (the Allies) buried civilians under shells in Dresde during WWII and it has always disgusted me. These tactics might be efficient to bring morale down but they should imo never be used.
If Ukrainians generals want payback for what they have been going through in this fucking unjust, brutal and unjustified war, these drones might be better used targeting the rich mansions of Putin's entourage.
I think the fact that they were so surprised speaks for itself. We all tend to underestimate how well propaganda works, including on ourselves.
Unless they're not paying taxes, they are
That's how America has salt dealt with the rest of the world for decades
